To me your little people are whimsical folk somewhere between Quentin Blake and Judy Horacek. What will your book be on? <br /><br />If I ever write my childrens book you'll have to illustrate it.Bellgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06440110266133758891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1515058611795405514.post-11506405119601277972009-05-07T11:55:00.000+10:002009-05-07T11:55:00.000+10:00do it!!!do it!!!eileenrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07940323907175431146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1515058611795405514.post-12892323074291734342009-05-07T08:57:00.000+10:002009-05-07T08:57:00.000+10:00Yes, enroll - you won't regret it.

You'll get momentum up with your drawing, you'll meet other talented artists like yourself, and you'll get lots of ideas. <br /><br />I think we all struggle with the idea that we can fit everything in - I've restrained myself from saying it on the blog but I keep thinking "who has time to be sick for over a week?!". We put a lot of pressure on ourselves but in some ways, there is an expectation out there that we should (and we have to resist it).<br /><br />Slow down, hang your arm out the window, and see where the journey takes you. I love your illustrations and think they'll make a great kids book.Jacquelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09467803584504473036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1515058611795405514.post-35869885864971777372009-05-06T20:41:00.000+10:002009-05-06T20:41:00.000+10:00Wow, I thought you must have been a published illu...Wow, I thought you must have been a published illustrator already!

And you have a wonderful talent with drawing - these sketches you are sharing are so whimsical - you could make them into lovely greeting cards - I would buy them. So yes, pull harder, reach that bank and run up through the sometimes soggy grass to the children's illustration course! I'm sure you would get so much out of it. I find being with creative people wonderfully stimulating.
